A Guide to New Jungler Hero Lillia in League of Legends (LoL)

Many players have been waiting for the League of Legends to release a new hero for jungle and their prayers have been finally answered. Since the last updates of heroes in League of Legends are more on assassin, fighter, tank, marksman, mage and specialist which can be assigned in different lanes. Either it can be top bottom or mid lanes depending on the hero you choose. Lillia was released on Wednesday July 22, 2020 under the patch of 10.15 in League of Legends.

Lillia is a skirmisher, either a mid-range or melee jungler hero. She is difficult to be use, lacks on defense but she has a good potential during ganks. She is more reliable in clashing rather than in one on one situations. All of her abilities has area of effect (AOE) in her target area. She can roam on top and bottom jungle, she can go in any lane but not too long depending on her level and magic damage.

Lillia is available in the shop and you can brought her through riot points (RP) or blue essence (BE). If you bought already Lillia, I suggest to try her out in Co-op vs AI mode before playing her in normal blind pick or ranked match. If you mastered playing Lillia  in Co-op vs AI, then you can now try her at normal blind pick or ranked match depending on your level. In order to test yourself handling Lillia against other players in the playing field against other players because there is difference between player's vs players and player's vs AI.

Lillia's combo attack, first is hitting the enemy with Swirlseed followed by Litling Lullaby then with Watch out! Eep! And Blooming Blows in clashing.  Any hero can be paired to Lillia but the recommended heroes are Taric, Sion and Twisted Fate. For her items you can follow her recommended items in the open shop like starting items, essential items, core items and situational items. You can create your own as long as it is magic items and suited to the situation, furthermore I will going to explain her skills below:

Skills

Dream-Laden Bough (Passive)  

Her passive skill deals 5% of max health as magic damage to jungle monsters over three seconds starting at 40 damage and higher depending on her level. Her passive skill is not intended to damage both minions and champions.

Blooming Blows (Q)

Her first skill will swings the censer around her dealing magic damage inside to the enemy and bonus true damage in the outer edge of the attack when the enemy is caught up. Each time she hits at least 1 enemy, she will grant a stack up to 5 times gaining her bonus movement speed. Each stack will be lost every 1 second.

Watch Out! Eep!

Her second skill will dash to 150 units of minions in her target area having a cooldown of 0.759 seconds. It dealt 200% increased damage especially hitting the enemy at the center spot, even though she can dash, you cannot use this skill while attacking an enemy in the terrain.

Swirlseed

Her third skill will throws a seed that will move forward at infinite range, hitting or colliding with an enemy or throw in a terrain while landing or rolling to check enemy in the bushes. When it hits the enemy, it dealt magic damage with 3 seconds of slow and 2 seconds to reveal the position of the enemy. You can use it for kill spree (ks).

Litling Lullaby

Her ultimate skill, she will cast a spell in the enemy within her range that has affected to her passive skill which grants slow in 1.5 seconds making their heroes sleepy and fall asleep for seconds. The enemies cannot be act or moved at this moment, unless they attack by non – periodic damage or awakened by the attack of Lillia which grants an additional magic damage.

Upgraded Realistic Matches for Greater Immersion

Visual Effects for Game Characters Get a Total Upgrade. All Characters will have much more detailed complexion and even sweat for a more intense match simulation. With the new Real Shadow option, the characters have a greater 3-D appearance and cast more realistic shadows. In addition, the game tweaked human physiques and improved the display for uniforms, to the point that even wrinkles on the latter are visible!

Realistic Fields and Atmosphere. The new version optimized the entire lighting effect on a field. Lighting for both day and night now comes off more realistic and naturally. Throwing in the new "Virtual Grass" and you can almost feel the soft green field.

While improving the stadium conditions and environment, the update also enhanced the NPCs working inside. Cameramen, security personnel, etc., have been added to spice up a stadium.

To accommodate both stadium visual and player perspectives, the new version offered a new view angle: mid-range, enabling better experience in competition.

More essential than dribbling in Tiki Taka is mastering passing accuracy. According to the development team, the update greatly optimized the spot and trajectory of a pass. Smart passing will select the most efficient trajectory for outstanding passers and deliver the ball to teammates faster.

Using Layla Revamp in Project Next on Mobile Legends: Bang Bang

As Moonton announced on their latest videos, the upcoming PROJECT NEXT, layla will be one of the heroes to get a revamp. Moonton found out that these hero can't be a great counter to current meta heroes, to make her one of the heroes to be efficient in the battlefield and that can compete with meta ones. Layla will get a revamp.

Layla is one of the heroes that is rarely seen in Epic to Mythic Division. Layla now looks younger than before and according to Choox TV she now walks sexier. This new layla has better visual effects than it's model before. Layla's revamp is now available to use in the advance server. Layla still needs a support or tank in a lane, because she is not very durable against assassins. Assassins like Benedetta can be a threat even though she already got her revamp.

Layla's revamp will be a deadly one, being a starter hero, she has straight forward offensive abilities. But this new layla will shine in the land of dawn, this revamp will have layla users excitement awaken.

The revamped layla is one of the perfect counter to melee heroes. If you want a build that is all about raw power and facing tank enemies, then check out this build:

  • Demon Hunter Sword
  • Swift Boots
  • Berserkers Fury
  • Scarlet Phantom
  • Malefic Roar
  • Blade of Despair

This layla build might not be efficient on late games, but depending on the situation, you can change the malefic roar to Rose Gold Meteor, this will give you higher chances for survival.

Layla's Weakness is her lack of mobility, therefore, once an assassin catches you or gets you with a Crowd Control Skill, Layla would be dead. So I recommend to use the battle spell flicker as a mobility for escaping.

Revamped Skills:

Layla's passive skill is still the same, she gains extra damage when she hits an enemy farther away from her. Her passive is called Malefic Gun. This passive skill is useful if you have a reliable tank.

First Skill – Her first skill still looks like the old one, but it add a new feature, after using malefic bomb (1st skill), it gives her a few seconds of increased basic attack range. This extra range can last up to 3.5 seconds at a max level, and starts out in 2 seconds. The damage output is still the same tot eh current server and can still deal critical hits. The cooldow is now change to 6 seconds at all levels.

Layla's Second Skill – Her second skill now has an extra effect where it leaves a mark on the enemies that are hit. The mark is called Magic Mark, Layla can detonate a Magic Mark with her following attacks, dealing extra damage to nearby enemies and slowing them again for 30%.

Ultimate Skill – Destruction Rush. Layla fires an energy blast, dealing damage to enemies on the path. The damage her ulti is dealing is still as the same as before but it is fixed to 37% at all levels. Upgrading her ulti will increase the range of her basic attack and Void projectile.

Would you use layla in rank games? Will layla be good in rank games or do you have other builds for Layla? Let me know what you think in the comment section.
